* Package name : python-rcssmin Version : 1.0.6 Upstream Author : n.d. parker * URL : https://github.com/ndparker/rcssmin * License : Apache-2.0 Programming Lang: Python Description : CSS Minifier The minifier is based on the semantics of the YUI compressor, which itself is based on the rule list by Isaac Schlueter. . This module is a re-implementation aiming for speed instead of maximum compression, so it can be used at runtime (rather than during a preprocessing step). RCSSmin does syntactical compression only (removing spaces, comments and possibly semicolons). It does not provide semantic compression (like removing empty blocks, collapsing redundant properties etc). It does, however, support various CSS hacks (by keeping them working as intended). . rcssmin.c is a reimplementation of rcssmin.py in C and improves runtime up to factor 100 or so (depending on the input). docs/BENCHMARKS in the source distribution contains the details. This is a new dependency for python-django-compressor, which is itself one of the runtime dependencies for Horizon, the OpenStack dashboard. This new dependency is needed by the latest commit on django-compressor, which is the only version currently supporting Django 1.9.
